6.2.5 Custom remote install
It is not a requirement to use the tools incorporated in ESET Remote Administrator. In the end, the most important
aspect is to deliver and execute the einstaller.exe file on client workstations.
NOTE: For einstaller.exe to launch, the currently logged in user does not necessarily have to be an administrator. The agent
adopts the required administrator user name / password / domain from the ERAS. For more information, see the end of this
chapter.
The einstaller.exe file can be obtained as follows:
• From the Remote Install tab, click Export... and select the Type and name of the Package to be installed.
• Click the ... button next to Folder and select the directory where einstaller.exe will be exported.
• Click the Export to Folder button.
• Use the extracted einstaller.exe file.
NOTE: The “Direct installation with predefined XML configuration” method can be used in situations where it is possible to
provide administrator rights for the installation. The .msi package is launched using the parameter /qn (for the version 3) or the
parameter /silentmode (for the version 2). These parameters will run the installation without displaying a user interface.

parameters under the account defined in ERAS the Logon...button
